I replaced the touch-sensor with an ultrasonic sensor, so the bot can ’see’ rather than feel its way around, made a mounting bracket out of LEGO to hold my phone, and let the little guy go for a roam around the house, while recording video.
He gets stuck on the occasional wall, but always manages to work it out in the end.

hmm, lets see, runs around bumping into walls, backing off, turning around, then running off to bump into another wall… i do that all the time too, but no one straps a camera to my head and posts it on the net!
